About the speaker

Billy Craven is an active practicing artist living and working in Chicago. His artistic inclinations lean towards fine art and gig posters featuring vintage photography and clippings. Cyclism, skateboarding, and politics are common themes that drive his printmaking aesthetics.

Billy Craven has long interacted with the world of street art and graffiti through his photography. With Craven as owner, contemporary street art plays a vital role at Galerie F. Hosting a wide range of international street artists in solo and group shows, Craven wishes to blur the lines of fine and street art with Galerie F as the vehicle.
